 Choosing an Interior Painting Company for Hillandale MD

Choosing a new paint color for the interior of your Hillandale home can be intimidating... but what about choosing a painting contractor? In both cases, making a rash choice can leave you with regrets. When it comes to color choice, you can paint a sample patch on a wall and see how you like it. What can you do when choosing a Hillandale interior painter? How can you make sure you end up with an painting company you will love?

Choosing an interior house painter takes a bit of effort, but the results are worth it! Once you have made a choice, you know you can confidently call them again and expect great things. Follow the steps below, and you are likely to end up with a winner!

Compiling a List of Hillandale Painters

The first stage of finding an excellent interior painting company involves making a longer list of potential options. A good place to start is with asking your neighbors, co-workers and family in the Hillandale area, so you can find out who they have worked with, and whether or not they recommend them.

Another obvious method is to take a look online. A quick search for Hillandale interior painters will lead to plenty of options. Browse the results there, and if any look promising, add them to your list.

Creating a Short List

Once you have your longer list, you want to trim it down to the three or four interior painters that look the best. The references from your Hillandale neighbors can help with this, and online reviews are also an excellent resource. Google, Yelp, Angie's List, HomeAdvisor, and other similar sites can help you narrow down the choices.

Don't get spooked by one or two negative reviews. Even the best painters end up with a couple unhappy clients, unfortunately. Additionally, competitors will sometimes maliciously leave horrible reviews under false names. Instead, look for patterns in the reviews, and select the companies that have the best overall client feedback.

Another way you can vet a house painter is by browsing their website. Is it professional looking? Do they have actual project photos? What can you learn about the company history? For example, a family-owned painting company that has been serving an area for multiple generations is likely to care about their reputation and about giving thorough customer satisfaction.

Interviewing Your Potential House Painters

Now that your list is narrowed down, it's time to start contacting the candidates. Contact the painting companies and ask them for an interior painting estimate. Throughout the process, pay attention to their professionalism and customer service:

  • Is their communication polite and responsive?
  • Do they show up on time for the estimate?
  • Do they have company vehicles, uniforms, and letterhead?
  • Are they attentive and helpful, or pushy and rushing?

As the estimates come in, do not just look at the bottom line. Instead, look at the details. How much surface preparation will they do? What is the quality of the paint they will use? How many coats of paint will they apply? Which surfaces are included or excluded? These details are much more important than saving a few dollars.

Finally, ask about the company's documentation and policies. Are they a licensed contractor here in Maryland? Do they have liability insurance and Worker's Compensation? Don't hesitate to ask for proof of these things. Also, do they have a guarantee on their work? If so, does it cover materials only, or materials and labor?

Time to Make a Choice!

With all that information in hand, you can make an informed, confident choice about your Hillandale interior painting company. If, however, you still have any hesitancy, there is another low-risk way to try out a local painter. You can hire them for a small job such as a hall bathroom or a guest bedroom, and see how the project goes. A reputable painting company will put just as much care and attention to detail into a small project as they will a large one.

One service that some interior painters offer is called Painter-for-a-Day. This gives you the opportunity to hire a professional house painter for 8 hours of labor at a reasonable flat rate. That way, you can get a feel for a company on a small scale before hiring them for a larger scale project.

A Review from a returning client.

Dear Williams Professional Painting,

This is my second time to call on Williams for painting at my condo. I researched carefully the first time and chose Williams due to the many wonderful personal endorsements and the recommendations by professional publications/institutions.

Just like the first time, the job was very professional from the person who came to do the estimate to the painters who actually did the job---Ricardo Salas and Cristian. They painted my bedroom--walls, trim, ceiling and patched a corner wall in the living room -- everything looks great --a very professional job. And, other than the beautiful new bedroom I have and the smell of new paint I would not even know they had been in my house.

Thank you all for the wonderful work you do.

Regards,

A Review for Williams Professional Painting

Dear Williams Professional Painting,

Ricardo Salas and Jorge did an outstanding job today at our house. They were neat, did great work and could not have been more polite and professional. They got right to work and finished both projects on time. Very satisfied with the job!

Thanks,

A Review from Washington, DC

Ricardo and Cesar were fantastic. Prompt, professional, and kept me informed at every step. Please let their manager know.

Williams’ painters kept the workplace immaculate!

I can’t say enough about the care and attention to detail that Ricardo Salas and Enriquez provided in repainting a dozen old, peeling 6 over 6 wooden window frames on my home that were down to bare wood in places. I am confident that my 1941 windows are in good shape for many years to come. Williams’ painters kept the workplace immaculate and as a bonus they were great dog-watchers! I was able to let my dogs out the backyard while I was at work, because they were careful to close gates as they went back and forth so no escapes occurred. They treated my property as if it were their own.

Exterior Painting - Manassas, Virginia

Hello Lisa,

Carlos did an excellent job. Robert (?) too. The colors, in real life look real nice. The sassy green is very cool...it helps to add a little extra "look" to this area....reminds me of being in Miami!

I'm glad Carlos did the painting by hand instead of spraying (except for porch rafters). His judgement is appreciated.

Now I have my own work to do to finish the porch old cedar planks. I like how that part will look when all done.

I see several cans of paint left over - Thanks. Some red and some green..deck sealer too. I can just take the color codes for the porch floor (Bungalow) and the white (Alabaster) to the paint store for more right? I will use more in some places as I finish my remaining projects.

Thanks again too for your assistance - it made the process more fun.

Regards,

A nice review for our foreman D2

D2 did an excellent job. The bedroom never looked so good..He was polite, efficient and skilled. He spotted and repaired nail holes and surface imperfections that were not particularly noticeable. And the result was beautiful. I would definitely recommend him.



L.H.

Thank you very much for such good service!

We were very happy with the work done by Williams Professional Painting and the crew who worked at our house. They were very careful and thorough. I appreciated that they made sure all the windows opened and locked after they finished. Bryan and Daniel (and Edwin earlier) were great! They kept us well-informed about their progress and discussed options at various decision points. I've already recommended your company to two families - and will continue to do that if anyone's looking for this type of service. I also appreciated the way the office kept us informed as we went through all the delays due to rain, and the fact that Milton came by to check on progress and consult on an issue that arose.

Thank you very much for such good service!

Best regards,

Dear Mr. Williams

I would like to thank your staff, Milton Chavez, Lisa Reyes,Juan Maldonado and Eric Quinteros for their exemplary professionalism and outstanding work on my newly remodeled basement. Milton was totally up front with me every step of the way. He explained all additional charges which would be needed to remedy the newly discovered mold and to add crown molding which were not included in original contract. Lisa did a wonderful job helping me select paint colors. Juan and Eric arrived promptly every day, worked almost non-stop even when the temperature was an unbearable 106 degrees. I want you to know I will be putting my comments on Yelp and will be sending you a copy.

Again my sincerest appreciation for a job well done. I will be recommending you to my family and friends.

Sincerely,


L.L

Thanks so much!

Good Afternoon,

I hadn't gotten a chance to send a review of our experience with the WPP team for the house painting we recently had done. Lisa made great color recommendations for us, was patient as we tried to figure out what would compliment our space the best, and we were very happy with her service. The paint crew that we had, Dagoberto and Edison, worked quickly and efficiently. A week later, I still have not seen a stray drop of paint. They were punctual, professional and extremely courteous. Everyone on the WPP team was helpful and easy to work with and we won't hesitate to use your services again in the future. Thanks so much!

Hi Dave and Lisa,

Jennifer and I want to thank you both very much for the great painting job that transformed our house to this century (Jennifer's words:)

Dogberto and Jorge did a a fantastic job with all the wall/ceiling preparation, attention to detail, painting, and daily cleanups.We appreciate all they did for us.

We wish again to bring to your attention the excellent work done by Juan Maldonado.

Rick:

We wish again to bring to your attention the excellent work done by Juan Maldonado with the painting of one of our bedroom, walk-in closets and exterior carpentry work.Although both jobs were small in scope, Juan completed them with the same attention to detail and technical proficiency as he demonstrated when he painted our Family Room.

He effectively and rapidly adjusted to all unplanned occurrences and without complaint.He consistently exhibited the traits associated with a true professional in his field and a sincere commitment to achieving customer satisfaction.

A Review for Williams Professional Painting

Great job. Courteous and professional crew. Rick oversees the project on a daily basis. My house was painted about 18 months ago. I recently noticed a small peeling spot. Rick sent someone out at their first convenience. In addition to that repair, the painter found a few other minor repairs as he is specked i in addition to that repair, the painter found a few other minor repairs as he inspected the entire exterior of my house. He did a great job and I was very pleased. Will definitely have them back when I need painting again.

I'll be sure to recommend this company and the services of Rick and Bryan to all of my friends.

I cold called Williams Professional Painting while searching for painters for my new condo in DC to obtain a quote. I was able to promptly talk to Rick Williams on the phone and he was extremely responsive and reasonable. I told him I recently purchased a condo and wanted to repaint everything prior to moving in. He sent an estimator out to my condo. The estimator, Jose, showed up on time and was extremely courteous, even removed his shoes prior to entering my condo. He took measurements of the rooms and recommended different types of paints for the rooms. I discussed with Rick that I needed the job done in two days and he said it wouldn't be a problem. His crew led by foreman Bryan arrived on time and was also extremely courteous and professional. Their #1 priority seems to be getting the job done correctly. Some of my paint colors were rather dark for accent walls and although my contract said 2 coats of paint, Bryan used 3 coats to ensure that the accent walls were painted properly.

Rick's team kept their word and finished my project in 2 days, even though it required bringing in a few extra painters, they still did not lapse their deadline. In the end, I am glad I hired Williams Professional Painting and did not take on this task myself or hire hourly help to assist me to paint. I'll be sure to recommend this company and the services of Rick and Bryan to all of my friends.

This was a great experience!

This was a great experience- Rick oversaw the project from the beginning and was responsive, considerate, and honest, while JB, Lucius, and Jamie were here every day and were really excellent. They were courteous, efficient, and kind! I work from home so we saw a lot of each other. Our project consisted of fairly serious construction, as well as painting and finishing, and we are thrilled with the results. Working on the aesthetics with Lisa was a joy too, she was very thoughtful and creative. We are really very pleased with all aspects of this project, and will be using this company again in the future as needed.


E.N

I will be sure to recommend Williams Professional Painting to my friends and neighbors.

Dagoberto, Fidel, and “D2” performed extensive work on the exterior of my house from May 25 through May 27. They power washed the exterior, replaced wood trim with PVC, and painted the exterior. They also repaired drywall in my den, and painted that wall.

They did an outstanding job! I will be sure to recommend Williams Professional Painting to my friends and neighbors, and as the need arises in the future I intend to use Williams.

Thanks!

The final result is beautiful

Ricardo Salas was the foreman on the two man crew that repaired extensive damage and painted my house this week. He arrived to the minute on time, and worked with discipline and skill all day every day. He went above and beyond to make the work perfect..even painting the tiny ceiling space above the huge window near the ceiling. He was polite and courteous.He is one of the finest workers I have ever seen at my home. The final result is beautiful. Thank you.

Williams Professional Painting Review

Good morning,

We just wanted to let you know what a wonderful job Carlos and Fidel did on our recent paint job. They were punctual, polite, and very helpful. The outside trim and inside entry look beautiful, and the repairs they made both inside and out are great. Thank you so much to both of them!

Sincerely,

Exterior Painting In Great Falls Virginia - Sr. Maldonado demonstrated his superior skills

Again, Sr. Maldonado demonstrated his superior skills in repairing the exterior of our house. His partner was new to us but his skills, too, were evident. This explains the excellent job they did.
